Alternative lifestyles will not change the world Resist, oppose, take back what is ours. Dumpster diving But not organizing Taking shorter showers But not opposing power Simply going vegan Will not stop the killing Alternative lifestyles The system should be broken down DOWN, BREAK IT DOWN (motherfuckers) Dumpster diving But not organizing Taking shorter showers But not opposing power Simply going vegan Will not stop the killing Navigating capitalism Won’t help to build up anarchism Act, confront, take it down.

We are bred like cattle, turned to pets. Servants of the ruling class. Property of State. And what do we do, are we fighting back? Are we aware of their hideous plot? If silence is gold, we all must be filthy rich. Searching a comfort in passivity. Just don't ask questions, stay at home. This system of control is so entertaining you won't know you've been indoctrinated. We are bred like cattle, turned to pets. We are staring at the television set until eyes burn and the last brain cell is dead. A nation of robots to produce and obey. If no one is thinking, no one questions authority. We're reduced to state property. And if the mind control will fail, the microchips are waiting to make us all dependent slaves, implanted on our forehead. It's time to break the eggshell and connect to ourselves. No more staring at the television set until eyes burn and last brain cell is dead. No numb population, we are free human beings. Let's take back our life from the clutch of authority. We are no more state property.

Long is the road leading from hell to heaven shall we change the train on our way or shall we keep heading to that same destination? oh, I got serious doubts if there's anything there at all from the moment we articulate our very first cry we're exposed to the virus called modern culture we, so innocent, and the attack so aggressive infected, invaded, tortured, doomed with the mother's milk we sucked this culture into ourselves we've been cradled to sleep,dreaming the takers' dream we're told to reach to and stay at the top of the pyramid we buy the things from them and we produce things they can sell, and we are raised to depend on them we are them (are we the damned?) the landscape is barren.. (we're crossing) a wasteland what have we left behind ? does anyone remember? in these few box-cars why are we crammed? (we are) running out of coal, still full speed ahead
5.
We build cities out of dust and blow to see them fall. Over and over again. Ember towers in the trembling hands of monsters, that hide under the sun. With no shame. We smile as the walls fall down. A simple spark and the world's in flames. A simple spark. Only ashes remain. Icarus! Tell me how it felt. In flames we drown. With our doors alight. The world is burning down. Like suns we're rising high. But we can't see through the smoke. Oh, Icarus. Tell me how it felt.

Ashes to ashes Dust to dust These words of iron will never turn to rust I made a decision when I was a kid A life of resistance, free and clean Intoxication never appealed Your social stigma? A badge of honor for me. Forever and ever Again and again With pride I take my stand With pride I mark my hand Seen so many wasted lives The pain and violence. The friends who died A thousand reasons to abstain The X on my hand will forever remain Forever and ever Again and again I take a fucking stand With pride I mark my hand

I will kill just to show you that I still care about these vultures I call friends. I can still smell the blood from the yesterdays, the consequences of my mistakes. And after all you were right, being yourself is not an excuse for your actions. I am sorry, believe me I'm sorry for all the pain I've caused you I never meant to hurt you. You give me wings, you are my everything and finally I have the heart to admit that I was wrong. Dear friend, I was wrong. All the restless nights, they are forever. All the disbelief in me made me believe in you. I hope these words remain timeless. I still care about my friends. Dear vultures, dear friends.

Escapar de tu control Como única misión. No rendirte devoción Porque solo escupes mierda. Odiando tu falsedad Tu hipócrita mezquindad. Seré yo mi propia voz Gritando que todo en ti es mentira… Ya no quiero más, No puedo aguantar Ser un títere En tus podridas manos. Desprendes Veneno Mentiras Mentiras y veneno… Y borrar de mí ser Toda tu presencia…

Bury the dead, make room for the living! Shovels dance in tired hands to the sound of singing: "We don't need history to define our purpose or identity". Bury the dead. make room for the living. Look ahead because that is where your path will take you. These simple chords will make a mighty fine anthem, the heat of burning flags will warm our tired hands.

My Turn - If 02:54
If you know the road, take me with you, leave the lights on and I will follow you If you have the key, open this door, let me in, let me crash on your floor Read between the lines and you'll learn, everything that burns me you should burn If you can tell the future, share it with me, I'm so curious to know what I'm gonna be If you are here to stay forever, forever Let's make a wish together, together If you don't fear to walk by my side Take my hand and join this endless ride. If you know the road, take me with you, leave the lights on and I will follow you If you have the key, open this door, let me in, let me crash on your floor Read between the lines and you'll learn, everything that burns me you should burn If you can tell the future, share it with me, I'm so curious to know what I'm gonna be If you are here to stay forever, forever Let's make a wish together, together If you don't fear to walk by my side Take my hand and join this endless ride.

Born in this perfect plastic wasteland the moral values have lost all sense and the poisonous destructive lifestyles risen up for an unconcious wasted youth Those in power who try to seize the weak Enslave with the chains of mediocrity they try to define our lives, as if we had no choice Erase your past, destroy your doomed future choke them till death with their own chains Show them you're not the weakthey try to beatdown Force your will against the corrupt and liars make your life worth these struggle We still live to fight

Where emptiness dances on the ruins of civilization, there the hope dies first. Where survival is the only power, there’s no majestic end. Where darkness sleeps in the daylight hours, there, life is too short. Where the daily grind teaches hatred, there, community is nothing but an illusion. Let your scream be a warning, a slight chance for change, az üvöltésed legyen viharjelzés. The messages of our pointless deaths will not save anyone from the ruthless intentions of the future. Where throbbing love fades away in everyday routines There embraces are without passion. Where nearness ends in far distances, there everything fight for the perfect moment at the same time. Here is the end of a day again, you sleep with tired thoughts. your dreams have long arms to get you everywhere, but stars are unreachable if you’re awake.

Bez naděje na horší budoucnost, štěstí nejde uhnout, od začátku dýcháš rajský plyn. Děsí mě dětský smích, řeže to do uší. Ne jako obraz selhání. Ne jako obraz porážky. Ne jako obraz neschopnosti. Co mělo být výhrou, smrdí porážkou. …a to, že nejsem uvnitř jen posiluje můj strach. Dokážeme to? Nezlomit srdce a neztratit tvář.

Wasted flee from a cancerous city. Grey concrete. Eyes turn away from the fossils in the deep. Under these feet lays a city downwards where we should have found homes. Where past chants echo thousand lives soaked in drunken dreams. Where days end with weary heads buried in shaking rough hands. From now on I wait until I'll watch these streets burn with lawless rage. Under the concrete there is cancer and all my forefather's skull. I want to leave this place and see this house in flames. The twenty square meter country. My home. My oxygen. It is yours as much as it is mine. We are all renting our countries I'll lend you mine. Each year more spent to maintain my so called 'tribe'. Every moment spent with open eyes is a miracle.

Reverence My flesh is filled with it My muscles aching, while on your throne you sit rushing towards the end, our end I’ve seen the fire lit… The fire and brimstone I rode through your hell these dead barren wastelands tales of tragedies to come…they tell. Reverence For movement and energy from A to B, to see it clear this body bled, blood let, black blood shed she’ll outlive humanity Seeds are sown, grown and harvested Seasons, species passing by Trees and flowers bloomed and withered Life demands we’ll die Merged together once again, each one of us, one with the soil Millions of years, a new dawn fades Gaia's veins once again flow with its lustrous oil Mile after mile and the sun’s in our face, never knowing nothing, never sensing it, but the road kills, the road kill after road kill, the clouds above, the wind-chill. Storm is drawing nearer, the deer’s and the birds have gone restless and worried. The deep blue sky’s foreseeing tragedies as it is threatening drawing nearer; towards defenceless fields, bending down for the all covering darkness, and the cold wet forests, once warm and sungazed, welcoming, embracing, now whispers no, no, do not hide in here. You bring misfortune, famine and ultimately death. For it is our end that they sense, yours and mine, they are shaking us off, like flees - do not drag us down with you! Screaming our way - and now, sleep in your bed mankind. Out in the cold, shaking. Out in the cold, shaking. Out in the cold, they’re shaking us off. We should have known… Reverence. Seeds are sown, grown and harvested Seasons, species passing by Trees and flowers bloomed and withered Life demands we’ll die Merged together once again, each one of us, one with the soil Millions of years, a new dawn fades with another fucking ape lurking in the shades Fire and brimstone another fucking hell these dead barren wastelands tales of tragedies to come they tell and as we grew old the ice melted away to the ground the trees fell, as if they cried out in vain for the drought land that unfolds and for stormy skies or to mankind’s deaf ears to the tales that were told. Out in the cold, shaking. Out in the cold, they’re shaking us off. We should have known… Reverence.

Yeah, that's right, you ain't worth shit You're just another product to use as seen fit Boxed and packaged, the label says free Sitting on the shelf with your lifetime guarentee Loaded and primed, and ready for use Just waiting for a target for their human abuse Well theirs plenty of them in this fucked up game Take out enough, maybe they'll give you back your name So while you're working to serve their master plan Blindly taking bribes to screw you fellow man Hiding your face from what you know is right Cos if the master says Ok, you think it's alright Years of grafting, blood sweat and tears Paying for the bastards to prey upon your fears Until the final day when they lay your soul to rest Just say sorry to the human race Well I heard all the hype, and I'm still not buying Won't turn my back on the suffering and dying Aint going to contribute to you national wealth If you want that shit done, you can do it yourself So drug me, abuse me, you can never hide I'm used to that poison, my eyes are open wide Kill me, erase me, I don't really care I'll never subscribe to you glorious nightmare God bless them all, feed the flag Another corpse for the blood soaked rag Another victem of national pride Just another pointless suicide.

I run around trying to escape the problems that I face every day it's been like this for many years, won't they ever disappear? will I walk away from troubles and turn around and say at last I found myself again alright, but was it mine? So many times I've told myself you're gonna make it you're too strong to give up on your dreams, but as you know it's always wrong now I'm sick all this fight I'm running blindly in despair don't give a shit if I am right I don't know if I even care Bring me back my hope for better days and all those times when I was just ok set me free because I suffocate in this world based on hate

about

Social Center ¡Adelante! is a free autonomous, self-managed, non-hierarchical and non-commercial space in the center of Sofia (Bulgaria's capital and its largest city) founded in 2010 by a collective of activists committed to social change and creating sustainable alternatives to the capitalist system and hierarchical ways of organization.

¡Adelante! hosts and supports various projects from free language courses to refugee support and LGBT+ collectives. All the events (workshops, lectures, discussions, screenings, concerts, presentations, stand-up comedian nights, etc.) are truly free and everyone's welcome!

The goal of this compilation is to find alternative ways to survive. The collective of Adelante is struggling with paying for renovations of the space and the monthly rent to the landlord.

We don't like the word "benefit" as we think "solidarity" best fits the current situation. Adelante means "Forward!" in Spanish and we express solidarity with all autonomous and egalitarian social spaces.
